Make the openings for the electrical supply cable and hot water supply line 1” (25.4mm) diameter. Make the opening for the dishwasher drain hose 1-1/4” (32mm) diameter. If the openings are made through wood, sand them smooth. If the openings are made through metal, make them large enough to accommodate grommets or other protective sheaths with inside diameters of 1” (25.4mm) for the electrical supply cable and the hot water supply line, and 1-1/4” (32mm) for the dishwasher drain hose. 34" (864mm) minimum 23-9/16" (598mm) 9090 23-5/8" – 24-1/4" (600–616 mm) Figure 1 Figure 4 21" (533mm) 30" (762mm) 21" (533mm) 30" (762mm) Dishwasher Electrical Rating Volts Hertz Amperes Watts 120 60 15 1,450 (max) Figure 5 3/8" -1/2" ( 8mm -13mm) 3" -4" ( 75mm -100mm) Electrical Preparation ELECTRICAL PREPARATION WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard To avoid electrical shock, do not work on an energized circuit. Doing so could result in serious injury or death. Only qualified electricians should perform electrical work. Do not attempt any work on the dishwasher electric supply circuit until you are certain the circuit is de-energized. WARNING Fire Hazard To avoid a fire hazard, make sure electrical work is properly installed. Only qualified electricians should perform electrical work. Electrical Supply The customer has the responsibility of ensuring that the dishwasher electrical installation is in compliance with all national and local electrical codes and ordinances. The dishwasher is designed for an electrical supply of 120V, 60 Hz, AC, connected to a dishwasher-dedicated, properly grounded electrical circuit with a fuse or breaker rated for 15 amps. Electrical supply conductors shall be a minimum #14 AWG copper wire rated at 75°C or higher. Regardless of where the electrical supply cable enters the enclosure (following the guidelines on page 8), position the cable 21” (533mm) from the enclosure’s left side, as shown in Figure 4. Extend the cable 30” (762mm) from the enclosure’s back, as shown in Figure 4. Remove 3” - 4” (75mm - 100mm) of the cable’s outer casing, as shown in Figure 5, then remove 3/8” - 1/2” (9 - 13mm) of insulation from each wire, as shown in Figure 5. Plumbing Preparation PLUMBING PREPARATION 14" (355mm) Shut off Valve Hot Water Supply Line Figure 6 WARNING Scald Hazard To avoid being scalded, do not perform any work on a charged hot water line. Serious injury could result. Only qualified plumbers should perform plumbing work. Do not attempt any work on the dishwasher hot water supply plumbing until you are certain the hot water supply is shut off. Temperatures required for soldering and sweating will damage the dishwasher’s base and water inlet valve. If plumbing lines are to be soldered or sweated, keep the heat source at least 6 inches (152.4 mm) away from the dishwasher’s base and water inlet valve. Hot Water Supply The hot water heater should be set to deliver approximately 120° F (49° C) water to the dishwasher. Water that is too hot can cause some detergents to lose effectiveness. Lower water temperatures will increase run times. The hot water supply pressure must be between 15 - 145 psi (1 - 10 bars). Hot Water Supply Plumbing Install an easily accessible shut-off valve (not supplied) in the hot water supply line, as shown in Figure 6. All solder connections must be made before the water line is connected to the dishwasher’s water inlet valve. Water may also be supplied to the dishwasher by using a braided hose line. Check with your local plumbing supply sources for the proper hose and 90° elbow fitting. NOTE: Regardless of where the hot water supply line enters the enclosure, position the line 14” (355mm) from the enclosure’s left side, as shown in Figure 6. NOTE: Decide whether braided hose or copper tubing will be used for the hot water supply plumbing, and purchase the correct type of hot water supply shut-off valve, 90° elbow, and necessary fittings for the hot water supply plumbing.

Installing an Air Gap If local ordinances require an air gap, as shown in Figure 8, install it according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Disposer Make sure to remove the disposer’s dishwasher drain connection plug before connecting the dishwasher drain hose. See Figure 9.
